The Chairman Local Organizing Committee,LOC, of the Anaguta Development Association 2024,Mr. Saji Dala has disclosed that the festival celebration of Anaguta people was marked with the launching of a skill acquisition center, recreation center, and Event towards addressing the unemployment problem in Jos North Local Government Council of Plateau State.

He made this known in an interview with journalists at Rwang Pam Stadium on Saturday during the ADA 2024 in Jos .

He stated that the beneficiaries of the multimillion-dollar (500 million) edifice are aimed at reaching out to all the residents of Jos North Communities.

Dala pointed out that the target audience cut across all ethnic nationalities and religions without any discrimination as the crime rate is soaring everywhere in Nigeria.

He noted that since the design model edifice needs to consume millions of Naira after completion our people and the immediate Communities stand to benefit more from the gesture.

However, the history of the Anaguta had a consistent tradition of origin based on mythology where the elders believed that they emerged from the cave at a place called Akotom which is located near Shere Hills , this myth is consistent with the various theories of the origin of the Middle Belt people that Plateau had been occupied for ancient world people.

The historical trajectory of the Anaguta people has been fascinating and characterized by the change from the pre-colonial and post-colonial eras economically where the people practice hunting and Agriculture as sources of income for the family.

Speaking natives harped on individual hunting as while as communal hunting with a leader called Udawa or Udauji with the consent of the Ujah.

However, with the advent of colonialism, locally made guns are gradually replacing bows and arrows for hunting, and communal hunting is rarely observed.
